Automatic Welding Provider for Pipeline Projects

We support pipeline contractors with complete automatic welding solutions. Combining advanced welding equipment, qualified crews, technical support and full documentation.

Our approach delivers:
•    Consistent weld quality
•    Higher productivity rates
•    Full traceability and audit-ready documentation
•    Reduced execution risk in demanding project environments

We execute. You deliver.

Welding is no place for divided accountability.

In many projects, welding is fragmented:
•    Crews from one subcontractor
•    Equipment from another
•    Procedures and documentation handled separately

When a weld fails acceptance, accountability becomes unclear and valuable time is lost.

Qapqa eliminates this risk, acting as the single contractor for the welding works, responsible for:
•    Automatic welding systems
•    Welding consumables
•    Qualified operators
•    Technical support by Welding engineers, Welding experts and Service technicians
•    Approved WPS and procedures
•    Complete documentation
